Chapter 337 Two birds with one stone

Qiongqi was so angry that he almost barked and cried.

Looking down at the roasted suckling pig in the food bowl, he decided to turn his grief and anger into appetite, and bit the suckling pig, as if the one in the bowl was not a wild boar, but Xiao Yifeng.

Xiao Yifeng looked at its indignant appearance, with a slight smile in his eyes.

I just heard Si Qing ask if he held the peacock feather in contact with Zhao County Magistrate, did he arouse the suspicion of Zhao County Magistrate.

Xiao Yifeng nodded slightly: "Magistrate Zhao has been an official for many years and is cautious. He is indeed suspicious of Peacock Feather's origin, but I didn't show any flaws, and he urgently needs Peacock Feather. Finally, a deal was reached."

Si Qing touched his chin and nodded.

Tell him that County Magistrate Zhao will doubt the origin of Peacock Feather, as she expected, after all, Peacock was found in Yang County, which means that the thief is also likely to be in Yang County.

So it's normal for him to be suspicious.

However, she knew that magistrate Zhao was an upright person, and he would not arrest people at will unless he had definite evidence.

This is also the reason why she let Xiao Yifeng pretend to be a rich son and bring Peacock Feather to the market.

Xiao Yifeng listened to her infantile voice analyzing the situation childishly, a smile flashed in his eyes.

In fact, there was a loophole in Si Qing's plan, that is, after Xiao Yifeng appeared in front of County Magistrate Zhao with Peacock Feather, he would definitely be targeted by County Magistrate Zhao, and he would not be able to appear in Yang County with his true colors in the future.

However, Xiao Yifeng felt that this loophole in Si Qing's plan was intentional.

Because the little girl didn't believe him and wanted to take the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

But she certainly didn't expect that she also had a way to break it.

First, he changed his appearance, and then pretended to be a member of the Xiao family in Jinzhou, and set up such a big trap for the county magistrate Zhao to get in by himself.

In this way, he is still him, not only selling Peacock Feather at a high price, but also has no influence on him.

Of course, Xiao Yifeng would definitely not tell Si Qing about this, after all, the little girl didn't believe him.

If you let her know that she is capable now, she will definitely be more defensive against herself.

Facing such a clever and suspicious little girl, Xiao Yifeng was also very worried.

Why was he accidentally discovered by the villagers that he was living in a thatched cottage?

At night, because they were worried about Si Qing's safety, the men in the village were directly divided into two groups. One group brought the women, elderly and children of the village into Si's house, and the other group held torches and guarded Yangshan Mountain with hoes and hatchets to the village. Come intersection.

When Si Qing saw that the village people's congress took great pains to guard against wolves, he wanted to say that the wolf pack would not enter the village because the wolf pack was injured.

But after thinking about it, he felt that this was better. In case the wolves soon chose a new head wolf to go down the mountain to continue seeking revenge, the villagers would be safe staying in the Si family.

After all, the Si family was under the pressure of her primordial spirit, and beasts would not dare to approach easily.

Furthermore, the walls of the Si family courtyard are so high that wild animals cannot come in.

So he didn't say anything more, and ordered Li Daya, Wu's family, Xiao He's family, and Zhao's family to go down and settle the people in the village.

The Si's house was a second-time residence, not too big or too small, with a total of about twelve rooms. The Wu family didn't want to disturb the aunt's rest, so they arranged everyone outside Si Qing's courtyard.

As a result, only nine rooms can be used, and there are more than 80 elderly, weak, women and children in the village, which is naturally very crowded.

But no one said anything, men and women were separated at night, and made a bed on the floor in the room. Fortunately, there were a lot of quilts in the Si family's warehouse, so it would be warmer if everyone huddled together to sleep.

On the contrary, those who stayed outside suffered a lot.

The mountain wind was strong at night, and it was still too cold to light a fire.

The serious front was scorched and the back was frozen.
